  4. Introduction to Protocols • Protocols vary according to purpose, speed, transmission efficiency, utilization of resources, ease of setup, compatibility, and ability to travel between different LANs • Multiprotocol networks: networks running more than one protocol • Most popular protocol suite is TCP/IP • Others: IPX/SPX, NetBIOS, and AppleTalk

  5. TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) • Suite of specialized subprotocols • TCP, IP, UDP, ARP, and many others • De factor standard on Internet • Protocol of choice for LANs and WANs • Protocols able to span more than one LAN are routable • Can run on virtually any combination of NOSs or network media • TCP/IP core protocols operate in Transport or Network layers

  6. The TCP/IP Core Protocols: TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) • Provides reliable data delivery services • Operates in Transport layer • Connection-oriented • Ensures reliable data delivery through sequencing and checksums • Provides flow control • Porthosts address where an application makes itself available to incoming or outgoing data

  7. The TCP/IP Core Protocols: TCP (continued) Figure 4-1: A TCP segment

  8. The TCP/IP Core Protocols: TCP (continued) Figure 4-2: TCP segment data

  9. The TCP/IP Core Protocols: TCP (continued) Figure 4-3: Establishing a TCP connection by three handle

  10. UDP (User Datagram Protocol) Figure 4-4: A UDP segment

  11. IP (Internet Protocol) • Provides information about how and where data should be delivered • Data’s source and destination addresses • Network layer protocol • Enables TCP/IP to internetwork • Unreliable, connectionless protocol • IP datagram: packet, in context of TCP/IP • Envelope for data

  12. IP (continued) Figure 4-5: An IP datagram

  13. IP (continued) Figure 4-6: IP datagram data

  14. ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol) • Network layer protocol that reports on success or failure of data delivery • Indicates when part of network congested • Indicates when data fails to reach destination • Indicates when data discarded because allotted time for delivery (TTL) expired • Cannot correct errors it detects

  15. IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) • Network layer protocol that manages multicasting • Transmission method allowing one node to send data to defined group of nodes • Point-to-multipoint method • Teleconferencing or videoconferencing over Internet • Routers use IGMP to determine which nodes belong to multicast group and to transmit data to all nodes in that group

  16. ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) • Network layer protocol • Obtains MAC (physical) address of host • Creates database that maps MAC address to host’s IP (logical) address • ARP table or cache: local database containing recognized MAC-to-IP address mappings • Dynamic ARP table entries created when client makes ARP request that cannot be satisfied by data already in ARP table • Static ARP table entries entered manually using ARP utility

  17. RARP (Reverse Address Resolution Protocol) • Allows client to broadcast MAC address and receive IP address in reply • If device doesn’t know own IP address, cannot use ARP • RARP server maintains table of MAC addresses and associated IP addresses

  18. Addressing in TCP/IP • IP core protocol responsible for logical addressing • IP Address: unique 32-bit number • Divided into four octetsseparated by periods • 0 reserved as placeholder referring to entire group of computers on a network • 255 reserved for broadcast transmissions

  19. Addressing in TCP/IP (continued) Figure 4-8: IP addresses and their classes

  20. Addressing in TCP/IP (continued) • Many Internet addresses go unused • Cannot be reassigned because they are reserved • IP version 6 (IPv6) will incorporate new addressing scheme • Some IP addresses reserved for special functions • 127 reserved for a device communicating with itself • Loopback test • ipconfig: Windows XP command to view IP information • ifconfig on Unix and Linux

  21. Binary and Dotted Decimal Notation • Most common way of expressing IP addresses • Decimal number between 0 and 255 represents each binary octet • Separated by period • Each number in dotted decimal address has binary equivalent

  22. Subnet Mask • Every device on TCP/IP-based network identified by subnet mask • 32-bit number that, when combined with device’s IP address, informs rest of network about segment or network to which a device is attached • Subnetting: subdividing single class of networks into multiple, smaller logical networks or segments

  23. Assigning IP Addresses • Nodes on a network must have unique IP addresses • Static IP address: manually assigned • Can easily result in duplication of addresses • Most network administrators rely on network service to automatically assign IP addresses

  24. BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol) • Uses central list of IP addresses and associated devices’ MAC addresses to assign IP addresses to clients dynamically • Dynamic IP addresses • Application layer protocol • Client broadcasts MAC address, BOOTP server replies with: • Client’s IP address • IP address of server • Host name of server • IP address of a default router

  25. DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) • Automated means of assigning unique IP address to every device on a network • Application layer protocol • Reduces time and planning spent on IP address management • Reduces potential for errors in assigning IP addresses • Enables users to move workstations and printers without having to change TCP/IP configuration • Makes IP addressing transparent for mobile users

  26. DHCP (continued) Figure 4-11: The DHCP leasing process

  27. APIPA (Automatic Private IP Addressing) • Provides computer with IP address automatically • For Windows 98, Me, 2000, XP client and Windows 2003 server • For situations where DHCP server unreachable • Assigns computer’s network adapter IP address from predefined pool of addresses • 169.254.0.0 through 169.254.255.255 • Computer can only communicate with other nodes using addresses in APIPA range

  28. Sockets and Ports • Every process on a machine assigned a port number 0 to 65535 • Process’s port number plus host machine’s IP address equals process’s socket • Ensures data transmitted to correct application • Well Known Ports: in range 0 to 1023 • Assigned to processes that only the OS or system administrator can access

  29. Sockets and Ports (continued) • Registered Ports: in range 1024 to 49151 • Accessible to network users and processes that do not have special administrative privileges • Dynamic and/or Private Ports: in range 49152 through 65535 • Open for use without restriction

  30. Addressing in IPv6 • IPv6 slated to replace current IP protocol, IPv4 • More efficient header, better security, better prioritization • Billions of additional IP addresses • Differences: • Address size • Representation • Distinguishes among different types of network interfaces • Format Prefix

  31. Host Names and DNS (Domain Name System): Domain Names • Every host can take a host name • Every host is member of a domain • Group of computers belonging to same organization and has part of their IP addresses in common • Domain name usually associated with company or other type of organization • Fully qualified host name: local host name plusdomain name • Domain names must be registered with an Internet naming authority that works on behalf of ICANN

  32. Host Files • ASCII text file called HOSTS.TXT • Associate host names with IP addresses • Growth of Internet made this arrangement impossible to maintain Figure 4-13: Example host file

  33. DNS (Domain Name System) • Hierarchical method of associating domain names with IP addresses • Refers to Application layer service that accomplishes association and organized system of computers and databases making association possible • Relies on many computers around world • Thirteen root servers • Three components: • Resolvers • Name servers • Name space

  34. DNS (continued) Figure 4-14: Domain name resolution

  35. DNS (continued) Figure 4-14 (continued): Domain name resolution

  36. DDNS (Dynamic DNS) • DNS is reliable as long as host’s address is static • Many Internet users subscribe to type of Internet service in which IP address changes periodically • In DDNS, service provider runs program on user’s computer that notifies service provider when IP address changes • DNS record update effective throughout Internet in minutes

  37. Zeroconf (Zero Configuration) • Collection of protocols designed by IETF to simplify setup of nodes on TCP/IP networks • Assigns IP address • Resolves node’s host name and IP address without requiring DNS server • Discovers available services • Enables directly connected workstations to communicate without relying on static IP addressing • IP addresses are assigned through IPv4LL (IP version 4 Link Local)

  38. Some TCP/IP Application Layer Protocols • Telnet: terminal emulation protocol used to log on to remote hosts using TCP/IP protocol suite • TCP connection established • Keystrokes on user’s machine act like keystrokes on remotely connected machine • FTP (File Transfer Protocol): Application layer protocol used to send and receive files via TCP/IP • Server and clients • FTP commands work from OS’s command prompt • Anonymous logons

  39. Some TCP/IP Application Layer Protocols (continued) • Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP): enables file transfers between computers • Simpler than FTP • Relies on UDP at Transport layer • Connectionless • Network Time Protocol (NTP): Application layer protocol used to synchronize clocks of computers • Network News Transfer Protocol (NNTP): facilitates exchange of newsgroup messages between multiple servers and users

  40. Some TCP/IP Application Layer Protocols (continued) • Packet Internet Groper (PING): utility that can verify that TCP/IP is installed, bound to the NIC, configured correctly, and communicating • Pinging: • Echo request and echo reply • Can ping either an IP address or a host name • Pinging loopback address, 127.0.0.1, to determine whether workstation’s TCP/IP services are running • Many useful switches • e.g., -?, -a, -n, -r

  41. IPX/SPX (Internetwork Packet Exchange/Sequenced Packet Exchange) • Required to ensure interoperability of LANs running NetWare versions 3.2 and lower • Replaced by TCP/IP on Netware 5.0 and higher

  42. The IPX and SPX Protocols • Internetwork Packet Exchange (IPX): provides logical addressing and internetworking services • Operates at Network layer • Similar to IP • Connectionless • Sequenced Packet Exchange (SPX): Works with IPX to ensure data received whole, in sequence, and error free • Belongs to Transport layer • Connection-oriented

  43. Addressing in IPX/SPX • Each node on network must be assigned unique address • IPX address • Network address: chosen by network administrator • Node address: by default equal to network device’s MAC address

  44. NetBIOS and NetBEUI • NetBIOS originally designed to provide Transport and Session layer services for applications running on small, homogenous networks • Microsoft added standard Transport layer component called NetBEUI • Efficient on small networks • Consumes few network resources • Provides excellent error correction • Does not allow for good security • Few possible connections • Cannot be routed

  45. Addressing in NetBEUI • Network administrators must assign NetBIOS name to each workstation • After NetBIOS has found workstation’s NetBIOS name, it discovers workstation’s MAC address • Uses this address in further communications

  46. WINS (Windows Internet Naming Service) • Provides means to resolve NetBIOS names to IP addresses • Used exclusively with systems using NetBIOS • Microsoft Windows • Automated service that runs on a server • Guarantees unique NetBIOS name used for each computer on network • Clients do not have to broadcast NetBIOS names to rest of network • Improves network performance

  47. AppleTalk • Protocol suite originally designed to interconnect Macintosh computers • Can be routed between network segments and integrated with NetWare-, UNIX-, Linux-, or Microsoft-based networks • AppleTalk network separated into logical groups of computers called AppleTalk zones • Enable users to share file and printer resources • AppleTalk node ID: Unique 8- or 16-bit number that identifies computer on an AppleTalk network

  48. Binding Protocols on a Windows XP Workstation • Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS): process of assigning one network component to work with another • Core Network and Transport layer protocols normally included with OS • When enabled, attempt to bind with network interfaces on computer • For optimal network performance, bind only protocols absolutely needed • Possible to bind multiple protocols to same network adapter
